   I have a Nexus 6P, and I'd trust the security on it a million times more than on my Arch-Linux desktop.

   Yeah, Linux especially I've never downloaded and installed something manually from the internet. I get all of my packages directly from: pacman -S foo Or sometimes maybe: yaourt -S foo tl;dr Use your operating-system&#x27

    Could someone more knowledgeable than me comment on what Selfrando is, how it's useful, and how it works.

    This is quite old news, not sure what it's doing here now, and with a clickbait title too.

    I guess it's relative. Compared to MP3, a lot of stuff could be considered "not widely supported".

    Was really blown away by [0], a description of the Fourier transform. And also [1] is a good read. [0] http://nautil.us/blog/the-math-trick-behind-mp3s-jpegs-and-h... [1] http://ww.w.mpgedit.org/mpgedit

    Not everyone is an audiophile. If I want to store some really high quality audio, I'd use something like FLAC. But for general listening? Nah, MP3-320 is fine.

    MP3 is really, really​ smart. Like seriously. Not sure why anyone would regard a patent expiration as a sign of its death. It should be the opposite! It's now free for everyone and in the public domain, and that is cause for celebratio

    That is very interesting. I don't see anyone having a significant motive here. Only thing I can think of is really, really far-fetched. Someone who know what was about to happen to the NHS inserted a backdoor into this distro, and is

    They're based on different technologies. Bolt uses B-Trees and Badger/Rocks/Leveldb use LSM trees. Bolt also uses insane amounts of RAM and writes get slower and slower as the size of the database increases. (Personal experie

    This could not have come at a better time, I've been looking for a fast, simple, pure Go key-value store. Few questions: - Does this have a log file? If so, what does it log and can it be disabled? - How is the data stored? (Single fil

    You make it sound like some professional outfit. Is it really like that? I would've thought that it's a bunch of teens.

    That's some solid advice, but for some people, that's simply not an option. If you can't find work elsewhere, you'd rather work for pennies than for nothing.
